ASEBA - Ages 6-18 Module

The YSR can be completed by youths having 5th grade reading skills or it can be read to youths who have poor reading skills. Its competence and problem items generally parallel those of the CBCL/6-18, plus open-ended responses to items covering physical problems, concerns, and strengths. Youths rate themselves for how true each item is now or was within the past six months, using the same three-point scale as the CBCL/6-18 and TRF. In addition, the YSR has 14 socially desirable items that most youths endorse about themselves.

The YSR scoring profile provides raw scores, T scores, and percentiles for two competence scales (Activities and Social), Total Competence, the eight cross-informant syndrome scales, the six DSM-oriented scales that are also scored from the CBCL/6-18 and TRF, Internalizing, Externalizing, and Total Problems scales. Scales are based on 2,581 high-scoring youths and normed on 1,057 non-referred youths.

Hand-scored profiles are available as well as French Self-Report Forms.

The Assessment Data Manager (ADM) for Ages 6-18 includes the CBCL/6-18, TRF, and YSR, enabling you to compare any combination of eight forms per child.

The YSR is appropriate for 18-year-olds who live with their parents and attend high school. The ASR is also available for ages 18-59 and is appropriate for 18-year-olds who live apart from their parents.
